(By A. D.) On Saturday afternoon, in the court house at Gibson, government experts met the farmers and discussed inter esting problems. Col. Newsome presided, and on the platform were Representative Hard wick and Mr. I. A. Walden and others. Mr. L. E. Boykin, of Washington D. C., made the first address, pre senting in his usual forceful, direct way the matter of good roads, as al ready given in The Herald. Mr. J. W. Willis, on authority on corn and ootton cullture, with his headquarters at Statesboro, Ga„ was next heard with marked attention. Mr. J. H. McCain from the state ex periment station at Griffin, next spoke on dairying. Mr. McClain’s position is unique. He is employed by the U. S. gov ernment to visit the farmers for the special purpose of improving their dairy business. Each individual farm is visited and each farmer advised with. His meth ods are examined into. The health, productiveness, profit and breeding of his stock are considered commercial ly. The owner is instructed and ad vised according to latest conclusions in dairying. By this means, the busi ness of many farmers has been dou bled in a year or so past. The State Experiment Station is so interested in this special w r ork, and so thoroughly convinced of its high utility, that it contributes S6OO a year toward the necessary expense of this farm to farpj work. After a few representative men shall have been sufficiently “coach ed” and successflu, it is proposed that they become object lessons, and their farms and methods be studied by farm ers near them. Such is the interest show'n in this work, and such the member applying for this personal aid of Mr. McClain that he is two months behind in hie engagements. In discussing dairying in his address at Gibson, Mr, McClain made refer ence to following ■points. Live stock are neoessaity to the highest soil fertility. The fertiliza tion that livestock contribute to soil is of the sort, and by the methods, best for practical purposes. Their subsistance makes necessary the rais ing of those crops, and in the best way, that are of highest value in the enrichment of land. The conditions in Middle Georgia are of the best sort for dairying. The climate being mild there may be rais ed two crops each season. This gives a rotation helped by, and helpful to, cows. This greatly aids toward making the farm self-sustaining. The dairying business puts a finish ed product on the market. Milk and butter, too, are always in demand be yond the supply. Dairy cows use a product of waste stuff that can’t be put on market. After cows have been sustained by cotton seed meal, there still re mains 80 per cent for soil fertility, as run through the stock. The increase of cattle may be count ed on for about 75 per cent. Hogs and chickens thrive on skim med milk, thus saving a big waste. Dairying is applicable to all farms. The poorer the soil, the more neces sary that owners should avail them selves of this means of profit and fertility. Immigration is helped by Improved land conditions. Wisconsin land got so poor forty years ago the people were desperate. Now, by improved conditions it is one thousand per cent, better off, and people are eager to buy it. The food value of milk is great. One quart of milk at 5 cents, equals in value a pound of meat at 15 cents. By wise selection of cattle and ob servance of sanitary methods, butter has so advanced that Elgin butter is now 24 cents a pound, against 14 cents, formerly. These gentlemen are very much gratified at their reception at theße meetings. While they had the largest attend ance at Sandersvllle, they had large crowds at Lincolnton and Warrenton and Statesboro. They do not care to dictate to farm ers already wise and successful. They can greatly help men, who are unfort unately doing the kind of farming one may see from car windows any day on any road from our cities. The Stellaville school has good pros, pects for the next year. Prof. W’. C. Peebles of Gibson, will have this old school; and, after Jan uary first, Miss Mamie Jackson of Wrens, will be n assistant there. The school v ..1 open first Monday in September. We will have some pic tures an- further account of it. P. M. L. D. A. H. ALL IN ONE. FOOTBALL THIS FALL FOR CHARLESTON CHARLESTON, S.

H. ALL IN ONE- THE AUGUSTA HERALIt FEW CHANGES II -SILL! MANAGERS MACON, Ga.—lt does not look now as if there will be very many changes among the managers in the South At lantic league next season as most of the new men have made good and are wanted hack by 'the fans. The present two leading clubs are head ed by new managers as neither Dobbs nor Castro had any South Atlantic league experience before this season. Ernie Howard is in the third place and this is his first experience. Jim Fox is in fourth. This is his first year out as a club leader. Macon lias made no plans yet for nekt year but Lawlor may be retain ed. He is a hard worker and as con scientious a man as the business knows. Mulianey may be retained in Jacksonville as he has made good in the past despite the fact that this year’s Jaytown club is a bad fizzle. Walter Morris seems booked Ip lead Knoxville next year and Granville would not make a bad choice in Co lumbia. Lack of funds is what has kep't Columbia so low in the running this year.
